A Glis Glis or a Squirrel you propbably know what a squirrel is but not a glis glis, it is a large European dormouse! I think a squirrel in a weird pose!

i know u already have one straight answer and i shouldn't answer but whatevs. I need points! JK!!! :P

Paris that is rude and totally unneccessary. reported

Answer 12

That is not a squirrel.  The arms and tail are not long enough and the body is too rotund.  Also, you can't see its hind legs - they are FAR too short to be a squirrel.

It is a glis glis, also known as a fat doormouse - they look kind of like a cross between a squirrel and a rat.  We recently caught one in my house - another was burnt to a cinder trying to climb through the flue from the boiler.

EDIT in response to the below:  Face not proportioned?  Its face is perfectly proportioned to be a glis glis.  Both squirrels and glis glises (I have no idea what the plural is) have bushy tails and eat nuts.  

Talking of "out of proportion", what about its hind legs?!  When a squirrel crouches to eat a nut, its hind legs are clearly visible.  It's a glis glis.

Answer 13

Thats defo a grey squirrel, its not a glis glis, it might not look like a squirrel because of the angle it was taken at, but its definately a squirrel.

That is a glis glis, they have completely different fur types.

So what you have there is most definately a squirrel :)

We used to have a nest (drey) of them in our garden and my mom traine dthem to come to her and they used to take hoola-hoops (the crisps) out of her hands.

Answer 14

I believe it's a squirrel... is this a trick question or something? Notice the bushy tail and acorn... yep, prolly a squirrel. It's the beady eyes and lard that throw you off. The face is not properly proportioned to be a glis glis.

Answer 15

It is a very fat common squirrel it is most defiantly not a chipmunk.

Answer 16

its a squirrel
